*Disclaimer: I do not own Akagami no Shirayukihime.

Prologue:

"Don't you think this kingdom is beautiful Zen," Shirayuki said with joy.

"Yeah, I just wish I was her to enjoy the scenery and not to attend some ball," Zen said annoyed.

"I know Zen, but think of all the amazing possibilities that could present itself," Shirayuki attempted to cheer her prince up.

"Shirayuki's right, loosen up and think of your time here as a vacation," Mitsuhide said backing up Shirayuki.

"Surprisingly, I agree with that dolt's, think of this as a break from all of the hard work that you don't do as a prince," Kiki remarked.

"What was that supposed to mean," Zen took back from Kiki's comment.

Mitsuhide, on the other hand, stared at her with his jaw dropped. Should he be offended that she called him a dolt or should he be happy that she agreed with him? While debating with himself he started to back away from Kiki and hit his head on a tree branch in the process.

"Ouch," Mitsuhide said.

"Pathetic," Kiki Lauged.

"Shh, I think I heard something," Obi went quiet.

"Yeah right, Obi there's nobody out here besides us, you're probably just imagining things," Zen laughed Obi's ridiculous comment off.

"Guys, I don't think Obi was making it up. I think I just saw something in that tree," Shirayuki stated worriedly.

Suddenly someone or something ran out of the tree at lightning speed.

"Obi," Zen started.

"I'm on it," Obi started to run after the figure, already aware of what Zen was going to tell him.

That was just a sneak peek at one of the scenes of the story I am going to write. (This is the updated version, hope you all like it! If your new readers don't know what I'm talking about then read the authors note, Chapter 10)

Please read it, and review it
